About Me

I read, cook, make art and try to figure out what the heck I'm supposed to be doing with my life. I chronicle it here. You can contact me at daphneannphillips(at)gmail(dot)com. If you'd like some design work, please contact me at www.daphnephillipsdesign.com

What Have I Read?

It's All About Me

Saturday, January 03, 2009

1. How have I not read Jonathan Carroll before? And, he has lots of books!

2. The Oakland library system is wonderful. I had no idea. You can request a book online, and they will have it ready for you at the branch of your choice! My branch is just down the street! I spent over an hour last night making a list of books to request/find. I was amazed at how many books which I wanted, they had in stock. I'm used to little Alameda library. There *are* benefits to moving to the big city!

3. I cannot express how much I am looking forward to sleeping in tomorrow.

4. Apparently a good cry must be had at least once daily right now. Bring on the Kleenex.

5. I love our new couch but the cushions slide out easily. This is annoying. Perhaps Velcro is in order? Time to get out the glue gun!

6. I love sushi rice. And mangoes.

7. The cats have not yet figured out that they can watch the streetlife from our living room. They only hop up to their perch at night. I think they're scared, actually. Fraidy cats.
